Abusers often use the threat of suicide as a way of gaining more leverage over the abused person. Please just try to see it as a further form of abuse, and try to ignore it. You can't prevent him from killing himself. He's a grown man and there is a lot of help out there for him if he is truly suicidal. However I don't think he is suicidal and I think that he is just using it to manipulate you into going back to him. I'm glad you recognise it as an abusive relationship. You are the one with the power now. You've moved out and got away from him. Don't give him the power back by listening too hard to him.
